Power failure options
To provide battery backup
Your BT Versatility can be equipped with an optional Battery Backup Unit (BBU).
When equipped the BT Versatility
can provide continued operation for at least 40 minutes in
the event of a power failure. If your system is equipped with ISDN access, it is recommended that
this BBU be installed as calls can be received and made on the ISDN lines if power fails.
Battery Alarm
If your system is equipped with a Battery a message ‘ Battery ’ is displayed on Extension 20 if the
system is running on the Battery. If you are not aware that the normal power has failed check the
switch is plugged in.
To make outgoing calls following a power failure
In the event of a mains power failure, (with the system not equipped with a BBU), Analogue
exchange lines are switched automatically to particular extensions and calls can be made and
received on these lines until the power is restored. The Featurephones will not work when power
has failed, so these extensions must be connected to standard telephones in order for calls to be
made.
